Nozomi Announces Blu-ray Plans For "Utena," "Gundam Wing" And More

Right Stuf's Nozomi anime publisher had a slate of Blu-ray release plans to announce at this weekend's Anime Expo, including season three of 2015's season 3 of yaoi comedy Junjo Romantica: Pure Romance, 1993 sci-fi comedy The Irresponsible Captain Tylor, Gundam W, and, as the series celebrates its 20th anniversary, Revolutionary Girl Utena.

"Never lose that strength or nobility, even when you grow up." When Utena was just a child and in the depths of sorrow, she found salvation in those words. They were the words of a prince, who wrapped her in his rosescented embrace and bestowed upon her both a ring and the promise that it would lead her to him again. She never forgot the encounter. In fact, she was so impressed that she aspired to be like the prince and also help those in need. Now a spirited teenager, Utena attends the prestigious Ohtori Academy. However, her strong sense of chivalry soon places her at odds with the school's student council and thrusts her into a series of mysterious and dangerous duels against its members.
